Okay, i am not 2weeks post op from gastric sleeve. I been feeling really down, i never realized how strong my relationship wit food was. Getting full as fast as i do, and still seeing food on my plate sometimes makes me want to cry because all i want to do is finish it! It sounds so crazy i know trust me i know. I wish i wasnt this way, everytime i see a food commercial i have regrets about surgery and i feel ashamed 100%.. because i went into this not even because i wanted to look hotter or anything, im a mom of a 4 year old wit autism that i can barely keep up with and im only 23 years old. I barely enjoy my life as it is being heavy, but food was always something i used for comfort and i guess im going through emotions as i say goodbye to that habbit, as well as junk food. Has anyone on here dealt with this? By the way, thanks for taking time to read and to reply for those who do. Its so appreciated. - Karen

Hey ya'll, im in the mushy stage, i was just wondering if anyone else has trouble getting protien in? Most i can gwt is about 30-40 and i should be on 60-80, any advice ?

I officially dont feel crazy, i had vivid dreams of eating chicken wings from the chinese store. And i cud taste it so well in my dream its kinda crazy ! Im 4 weeks out

Hey everyone thanks for taking time to read this, i just got operated for vsg single incision on jan 26, so im pretty much 2 weeks post op. Anyway my concern is i started having this clear/brown liquid coming out of my bellybotton (also thats where the incision is located) is this normal? I just saw my doctor this morning for a followup and he said everything seemed okay, now im a bit worried because theres alot i had to do today (chanhe my sons diapers, cook etc) maybe i over did it? If you have experienced this, any advice?

Thank you everyone for your words and support. [emoji177]

If you do find put, if its not trouble can you let me know ? Genepro just seems like a perfect solution for someone like mex i really struggle with protien shakes no matter how much i try i will even get nauseous at times trying to force myself to drink lol . Thanks again

Thanks ladies, i decided to call my doc because it didnt really stop after 2 dayss, and i realized that the glue fell off ... so they want me to go in tomorrow just to be safe. Thanks for the input ! [emoji8]

Crap! Really? I had my heart set on it [emoji22][emoji24][emoji24]

Thanks , and your right . [emoji173]

I originally started with 2 drinks a day to get my 60, thing is it takes me all day to pretty much chow those 2 shakes down since it feels dense to me. And my doc wants me to cut down to one protien drink a day so that i can start eating

U had me at table spoon lmao omg thank u , going to try this asap!!!

Thank u ladies, i will give those a try. I been drinking preimere protien chocolate which altho is good is too heavy and makes it hard to finish, i will try ur suggestions. Thanks [emoji175]

Jesus,. . . . Im so sorry as a parent i cannot imagine the pain is inflicting on u as well. Im sorry i really wish and pray that everything will go well for her

Okay so this may sound crazy but i am 9 days post op. I went into surgery expecting regularly incisions, and when i woke up i only had one through my belly which i was confused as well as ecstatic! But i dont know if this is healing correctly or if its scabbing right or if is infection (no puss no ooze, just very hard scabs which causes pain when i sit down) i was just wondering if anyone has had a single incision through the navel and if so, is this normal?

I woke up to realize i had only one incision through my belly after the gastric sleeve surgery. Which i was confused but i was also really excited because i thought i was gona wake up to about 4 or 5. anway, due to that i am unfamiliar to how this healing process is suppose to feel, is there anyone out there who has gotten the single incisions? My belly botton is scabbing on the inside and when i sit down its pretty painful, i just wanted to know if this is normal, or how long it would last honestly any input is appreciated Thanks!!! Btw i am 9 days post op Sent from my SM-G920T using the BariatricPal App

I cant wait to feel happy ! I cant wait to go shopping, i cant wait to go out to dinner and order something healthy and face my fears while my family orders junk, i cant wait to succeed

I thought i was the only one, to be honest i couldnt stomach it at all. But for some reason the preimere protiens i was able to drink if i sip water in between. Or you can always try unflavored protien powder and add it to your soups, oatmeal etc.

Thank you! I will talk to my doctor and see why the scabbing is causing me pain. Wish you luck on your journey Sent from my SM-G920T using the BariatricPal App
